Ham Radio
Kids.com is a
program of Albert Partlow Science Foundation.
Our mission is to support the science departments of
small and underprivileged schools.

Kids are the Future of Ham Radio

Let's face it, today's youth have a
technological advantage that was unheard of a few years ago. The world is getting smaller. The entire planet is now interconnected with cell
phones and the Internet.

Ham Radio is often dismissed as "old fashioned"
but if it weren't for Hams, where would we be?

Hams were key in the development of most of the technological luxuries we take
for granted today.
Ham Radio needs to survive in order to keep making advancements in science and
technology.

In order to keep the Ham Radio hobby alive, we need to recruit new hams into our
ranks.

The next generation of Hams are today's kids.

We need to expose kids to Ham Radio in the classrooms,
and we have to demonstrate that "Hamming" is fun!

We started with two small Nevada schools in 2010 - New Life Christian Academy
in Las Vegas, and Community Christian Academy of Pahrump - but our goal is to
eventually reach into
classrooms from coast-to-coast.

We want to introduce kids to the science, technology, and excitement
that makes up Ham Radio!
